Hailing from Florence, Italy, Adelmo Banchetti started his career in the food and beverage world at the tender age of 16. His work took him all over the world from ships to hotels, and finally, Dallas, Texas , where he worked at the legendary Fairmont Hotel’s Pyramid Room, the Mansion On Turtle Creek, and the Crescent Court Hotel. In 1989, he and his wife Eliza, who hails from the Mediterranean region, opened Adelmo’s Ristorante to rave reviews. Their love of family, friends, good food and wines is reflected, to this day, at Adelmo’s. We feature cuisine inspired by the Italian/ Mediterranean region as well as the herbs, spices and grains indigenous to its shores. Made with the freshest ingredients. Now, the tradition continues with their children Andrew and Lauren on board . We continue to be family owned and operated and offer award winning wine selections and personalized service, all in a rare old world setting.

It took almost 2 hours for our food when others were being served—our reservation was 7:15 and we left at almost 10 pm.
Adelmo's RistoranteResponded 3 days agoWe came to your table, apologized, and explained that the Chef and a line cook were out due to illness, and we had to bring in more help that were not familiar with our kitchen, and menu, and were not up to speed. This is not exemplary of our service standards.

It’s always wonderful when the restaurant’s owner is present. My husband and I frequented Adelmo’s when the restaurant was located in Knox-Henderson area, but we moved away from Dallas for several years and returned during Covid. Seeing Adelmo at the helm in Inwood Village brought back many wonderful memories from decades ago. The food was every bit as delicious as we remembered. The service was impeccable and the atmosphere warm yet upscale. Thanks, Adelmo!!!!

It's easy to say we go there for the food. We go for John, we go for the owners daughter recognizing us on our second visit. It's because they treat you right. The pièce de résistance is the food, they just straight up flex when you eat the food.

We have been dining with Adelmo for many years and it is our favorite "go to" place. The atmosphere is charming, the food consistently delicious, the service always warm and friendly. We almost always add the minestrone soup to take home with us for our next night's meal or put it in our freezer for future use. It is like dining with a very compatible family!

It was our 43rd anniversary. I had looked through about 40-50 resturants between steak, seafood, and italian. We were not disappointed one bit with our selection of Adelmo's. Good atmosphere and the food was great. We have visited central west Italy 2 years good. Adelmo's is about as close as you are going to get in the US.

It's like the family run Italian restaurants that we grew up with in the Northeast. Good assortment of menu options, and very friendly service. The prosciutto and melon appetizer is so good and reminds me of old times. What a great combination of flavors.

As soon as my family walked in the door, the lady in the blue apron looks at us & tells the man at the bar, “no one can sit at the bar and no takeouts today.” She was so rude. Then they ask if we made a reservation, which we did. . . Luckily, the waiter we had, Mr. John was excellent and made up for how our evening started. The food was tasty and the restaurant ambiance was soothing.

Just could not be better. Had loud group next to us at 4 top in main dining room. Asked waiter to move us so we could hear each other and without question, after serving bread and drinks, immediately moved us to a table in back that was very quiet. Could not have been more gracious.
